Individualize your health plan based on your Genetic Blueprint.
WHAT IS DNA TESTING?
DNA testing is a powerful tool that can help you identify how YOUR body specifically reacts to its environment based on your genetic code by analyzing specific markers in your DNA. This type of testing helps us find actionable DNA that can be changed with improvements to lifestyle and nutrition, and will even give you a blueprint of nutritional needs specific for YOU.
At Auburn Chiropractic Health Clinic, we are proud to offer patients a comprehensive LIFESTYLE genetic test that can be used to reveal how your body will uniquely respond to specific nutrients, what you eat, and drink, how you exercise, and your environment.
WHICH DNA TESTING DO YOU OFFER?
We recommend the Reveal My DNA test, which provides a comprehensive analysis that covers an extensive list of 92 Genes and will guide you through a whole-body approach of personalized diet, lifestyle, and environmental insights for vibrant health.
Additionally, we trust Reveal My DNA because of their commitment to make your privacy their priority. All DNA samples we take and test are 100% de-identified through the use of barcoding, so that your identity is protected. The lab testing your DNA sample is housed in the USA and your DNA is owned by you and you alone. YOUR DNA IS NEVER SHARED OR SOLD.
HOW DOES THE DNA TESTING WORK?
Have you or someone you know ever struggled with chronic illness? It can be exhausting and overwhelming when you are doing everything you know to do – taking your medication as prescribed, exercising, and eating “right”… and still feel sick and tired!
Our personal DNA provides information much like an instructional manual that is unique to each of us. 99.9% of human genetic material is the same for the entire human race. Therefore, it is the minute .1% that varies and makes each one of us unique. Hence, if we can know more about this .1% then we have a much better chance of knowing what our needs are for optimal health. By knowing this important .1% then you can apply this genetic blueprint information and apply this genetic information to strongly influence your health and outcomes.
DNA Testing, like the Reveal My DNA test, helps to provide us information that we can use to address nutrigenomics and epigenetics.
Nutrigenomics is the study of how foods interact with your genes and explains the individual genetic differences that can affect the requirements of vitamins, minerals, and compounds in the foods we eat. Everyone absorbs, metabolizes, and transports chemicals differently based on their genetic makeup; nutrigenomics unlocks this personal blueprint.
Epigenetics refers to chemical tags that attach to the exterior of the genome, changing the way that your cells read and express your genetic material. Understanding DNA versus epigenetics is like understanding nature vs. nurture. DNA is your blueprint, not your destiny. Your genetic results are your nature determined at birth, and these results do not change throughout your lifetime. However, nurture or epigenetic influences, including your diet, stress levels, relationships, sleep patterns, environment, and exercise, change your genes’ expression. “Good” or “bad” genes are relative to the expression of your genes from your epigenetic choices in life.
The Reveal My DNA test provides us with a Comprehensive Health Report that shows where you need to epigenetically narrow your choices to increase the probability of success for a sound body and mind. Epigenetics gives you control to build a healthier version of yourself, cell by cell!
WHAT SPECIFICALLY CAN THE DNA TESTING BE USED FOR?
Reveal My DNA testing can provide relief and improve the quality of life for patients that are suffering from:
- Chronic Illness
- Fatigue
- Lack of Energy
- Inflammation
IS THE REVEAL MY DNA TEST REPUTABLE?
We recommend the RevealMyDNA test because it is 100% robotic, which removes all chances of human error or contamination and provides test results that are 99.99% accurate and error-free. Additionally, the Laboratory testing is conducted in the USA at the myDNA CAP, a CLIA accredited facility.
WHY SHOULD I CONSIDER DNA TESTING?
Because your DNA is unique to you and is your genetic blueprint that can help you individualize your health plan. You only have one body and one life to live and you deserve to have a detailed analysis that works specifically for you!
